  • Adam shares this beautiful sci-fi space helmet he received as a gift at SiliCon, made by master foamsmith Evil Ted Smith! Ted created this helmet for an indie science fiction film, and it has the hallmarks of a great piece of foam-fabricated costuming: internal lights and a built-in fan that circulates air for comfort and defogging. Thanks so much to Evil Ted for this wonderful addition to Adam's helmet collection!

    Evil Ted is the reason I’m still able to make foam cosplays to this day. I had given up foam fabrication years ago, as I just wasn’t good enough with the medium.
    I went back to resin replicas and mold making.
    Evil Ted showed up on CZcams a few years after I had stopped with eva foam and truly changed the game and really helped level up my skill just from all the techniques he shared with the community. I’ll always be grateful.

      Fan Radar sounds a lot like some of the situational-awareness habits developed by successful spies. Basically fully developed peripheral vision plus the suppression of the "look at the thing that caught my attention" reflex to where *not* directly looking at something you are nonetheless aware of and tracking is instinctive.
      Skilled street cops have a similar ability to instantly track onto something that "just doesn't look right", even if it's not in their core field of view.

    I love how much variation people can get out of foam. From leather to chainmail to metal to stone to wood, all from foam and paint.
    I think the best I've done was bull horns out of spray foam and silicone caulk with layers of paint to give the right translucency of the striations of keratin on the horns. I needed 2 for a helmet and 3 of them happened to make it through safely to the finish, so the third ended up turning into a powder horn as an accessory for a later steampunk costume.

    I always thought they would defog helmets in movies like the way we did in the Army. In the military, the pro masks (gas masks) have two one way valves near the cheek and mouth. On the left (right if you are left handed) is an intake valve that has a vent/funnel/duct thing that forces incoming air to spray onto the lens to defog before its breathed in. The other side valve is for exhaling. Its works great and its silent, where as a fan would make noise.

    All of my favorite episodes were the ones like lead balloon and concrete airplane but the series would have lasted a lot longer if you had done one major myth with filler around it and every third episode a filler episode rather than cramming so many major myths together running out of material till all you had left was filler however I loved your idea of fan submission episodes

    I think Star Wars lately has a helmet problem. Just look at the starting logo on the shows. Although the LEGO one made me laugh.
